Steelers fans seem to forget the immaculate reception. One of the luckiest plays in NFL playoff history.
Oh no; see, if it happens for the Steelers, it's through skill, hard work and that blue collar mentality. If it happens against them, it's luck or cheating, get it?
Also, that play was totally illegal as back in those days, the ball could not bounce off of one offensive player and into the hands of another, it was ruled an incomplete pass. Watch the replay and you will see it clearly does, yet the refs in that game had their collective sacks shrivel up and did not correctly wave it off and call it an incomplete pass.
The story goes one of the refs asked what kind of security escort they could get out of the stadium if they reversed that call and we're basically told "None; you'll be torn limb from limb", so the play stood.
Had their been instant replay back in those days, the call gets reversed and the toilet known as three rivers stadium would have been burned to the ground.
Between that play, the tuck rule and the fumble that wasn't in Denver vs the Broncos, the Raiders feel like they got screwed out of three other Super Bowl titles.
Too effin bad Raiders, you got a gift in 76, so deal with it.
And sack up Stooler fans; more Super Bowl titles than any other team and you're wallowing in self pity over terrible playoff defeats. This coming AFTER you just had a Super Bowl title gift wrapped by Brady being out all year, lighten up. Look, we all know living in Pittsburg blows, but isn't there anything else better to do with your free time?
